I am talking about Hermes alligator from the 50's and 60's, the bags are just beautiful, timeless and so well made they still look new (provided the owner has looked after it)
The find of the lucille de paris was a one off fluke, but there is a great little webite legacy-nyc-com that has a couple of lucilles bags at reasonable prices and some other gorgeous vintage bags - leather and some fur - that dont have designers names attached to them and are really inexpensive and they have the wow factor?

Hi, check eBay first where most vendors buy their inventory for resale. Here's one in crocodile from the 60s for $2,500:

At the moment, there are also half a dozen leather ones in the price range $800-$4,000 depending on condition, leather and age. Here's the brown one for $800:

Malleries is a reliable source with the largest variety of vintage Hermes bags. Here's the alligator for $3,900:

Hope it helped
But it's one of my favorites, a tooled leather bag from the 50s or 60s I'd guess that I use frequently now that the weather is getting warmer. The best part - "Betty"
